How To - Making Sure Your Terrain is Flat. =]
Hi :mrgreen: I'm sure a lot of people who create worlds knows this so this is more for newer CAW-ers. :) I learned this from someone on Custom Sims 3... don't remember exactly who (blush) it can...

Hi :D
@Christinebremner- Oh, Cool~ a new world! Can't wait to see it. :D
The river bridge from Pets is huge and I've never used it. I've seen it used with a single road so as long as it works.
It the Walkthrough there's a guild for the basic dirt road. You can use whichever dirt for the road and sidewalk but it shows the way to set it up. - the walkthrough is on the CAW download page. :)
What you can do is turn the Grid tool on then delete that road section that is showing the road through it to see if there is a little hill under it. You can hit the Undo key/tool to put the road right back.
If there is a little bump under it you can use the smooth terrain tool to smooth it out- small brush, low strength.
The Road Grading tool doesn't always smooth out the land under the road. :)
Make sure you have the stage from buydebug in Buy mode (Not sure if you mean the stage in Build mode).
Also, you can go into an EA Showtime show lot and see how it's set up. The game will generate a square for the proprietors which aren't available for us anyway. :)

I used the river bridge which has a wide road and the road is more narrow, do you just match the road you create to the middle of the bridge or is there a way to make a wider road. Haven't quite figured out how to make dirt roads and paths down to the beach or make a walking trail. The bridges are for another world I'm working on Winding River which is a small 200 mountain with river world.

Also posted a photo link of my latest world, Flatlands Cliff which is a mountain/beach. Got the roads a little better this time except for a few spots that look like grass when zoomed in.

When I made Silver Mountain, I also created a small Coffehouse with stage (for Showtime) but it didn't draw a proprietor to work and I labeled the lot as 'Coffee House'. There is a stage inside. Do you know what's needed to get the venue to function as a coffee house or of a tutorial on creating Showtime venues?
Thanks again for your help.
